Hubby and I are fresh back from a fairly long (but not nearly long enough) trek to the West coast. I love "The City" by the Bay more now that I did before but not as much as I will next time around. There is so much to see and do, it's impossible to talk about it all without making your ears bleed, so to summarize...
There's the Bridge(s), the wharf, the trolleys, the Piers, the Farmers Market, the cable cars, the hills, the parks, the sea lions, the chowder, the tea, the fog, the Rock (Alcatraz), Sausalito, the art and artists, the Painted Ladies, the parrots, the history, the tragedies (fire and earthquake), the romance, the food, the wine, the bread(!), the chocolate, the Bay, the sunset, the 49ers, Chinatown, did I mention the food?, the carousel, the Red Trolley ale, the Presidio, and the people... All EXTRAORDINARY... Add one five-star-blow-your-mind-and-hold-on-to-your-VISA-card needlepoint store (Needlepoint, Inc.) on top of all that and hey, what more could a girl ask for (besides more money and one more week)? I do believe SFCA has something for everyone. I also firmly believe everyone should go see it before it drops off into the Pacific Ocean... Seriously..
Enjoy a few pics while I go try to telepathically convince my pathetic avocados to taste more like fresh, ripe Californian avocados...
